Graphic: Syria chemical weapons sites

Syria's chemical weapons facilities have been documented in a new report by
the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism.

The think tank has presented an inventory of Syria's production and storage facilities that it states the regime began stockpiling in the 1980s.

The International Institute for Counter-Terrorism report states that the regime has a large supply of VX, which is a deadly nerve gas, as well as Sarin, the agent thought to have been used in the chemical weapons attack on the outskirts of Damascus last month that killed 1,400 people.

The report claims the army is in possession of more than 1,000 tons of chemical weapons at over 50 sites across the country - and that the Assad regime could deploy these weapons through rockets, artillery shells, aerial bombs, and ballistic missiles.
